I like it. Ought to be a built-in browser feature, in addition to generic reader mode. But then so should uBO-level ad blocking...so you may have many years. Have you considered donations/sponsors/patrons? Presumably more an occasional coffee requires massive numbers of users for something like this, but maybe you could do something like prioritize attention to site-specific fixes (which seem to be the main thing in https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter/issues) for supporters. Added: the annotation/library/social features look interesting and thoughtfully done, but <10% chance I'll use regularly. Perhaps I should want a tool such as this to help me be more organized, but instead I perceive it a bit as...clutter.
In Show HN: Unclutter – Reader mode, but better
It's possible for extensions to only get access when you activate it for a specific tab. If you want Unclutter to work this way you can manually set "Site access" to "On click" in the Chrome extension settings (this doesn't work on Firefox unfortunately). The reason I enabled "all sites" by default is to make the automatic activation feature work, which used to be more powerful. Possibly it can be done with an optional permission now, I'll look into it: https://github.com/lindylearn/unclutter/issues/527 Thanks for the feedback! Also, if you don't like something you can always submit a PR ;)
